Let $C$ be $j\operatorname{cl}$-closed, let $\lambda$ be a $j\operatorname{cl}$-independent tuple, and set $F=\mathbb Q(\lambda)$. For a tuple $z$ whose coordinates lie in distinct $G$-orbits and a nonscalar $g\in G_F\setminus G$, is the Ax–Schanuel lower bound $$ \operatorname{td}\bigl(j(z),j'(z),j''(z),j(gz),j'(gz),j...
In the model theory of the j-function, is the transcendence-degree lower bound td( j(z),j'(z),j''(z),j(gz),j'(gz),j''(gz)/F,C )\geq3n of the main theorem sharp or improvable without proving modular Schanuel conjectures, and can the j-derivation pregeometry jcl be described explicitly?

Let $L=\mathbb Q(\sqrt{-d})$ with $d>0$ square-free, let $$G(\mathbb Q)=\{g\in\operatorname{SL}_3(L):g^*Jg=J\}$$ be a $\mathbb Q$-rank-one unitary group, and let $\Gamma\leq G(\mathbb Q)$ be an arithmetic subgroup. Can one carry out explicit reduction theory for $\Gamma$?
For a Q-rank-one form of SL_3 and a subgroup Gamma of G(Q)={g in SL_3(L):g^*Jg=J}, where L=Q(sqrt(d)) and d is square-free positive, can one carry out explicit reduction theory for Gamma?

Let $(R,\mathfrak m)$ be a d-dimensional local ring, I an ideal, and $(I_n)$ a decreasing sequence cofinal with the powers of I. If $\operatorname{length}H^i_{\mathfrak m}(R/I_n)<\infty$ for all sufficiently large n, what is the asymptotic behavior of $l_n^i=\operatorname{length}H^i_{\mathfrak m}(R/I_n)$?

Large Regularity Quadratic Ideals with Linear First Syzygies
Does there exist a family of quadratic ideals $I_m\subset K[x_1,\ldots,x_m]$ with linearly generated first syzygies and $\lim_{m\to\infty}\operatorname{reg}(S/I_m)/m>0$? Also, is there a constant $\lambda$ such that $\operatorname{reg}K[\Delta]\leq\lambda$ whenever $K[\Delta]$ is Cohen–Macaulay and satisfies $N_2$?
